It seems like lately I've received so many prayer requests. What am I saying? There are always people who need prayer. Sometimes even me! Perhaps it's just that I've grown in my faith and so my heart is more open to the needs of others. Whatever the reason, I'm always ready and willing to pray for anyone. I believe in the power of prayer. And I'm also keenly aware that "but by the Grace of God, there go I."

So, when one of my Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps DT sisters asked for prayers for her birth mother, who is newly diagnosed with cancer, and for cards to cheer her, I was happy to oblige. This is the card I made. I specifically bought the stamp set Lift Up Our Hands from Our Daily Bread Designs to make cards of encouragement in times of need.

The cardstock, DP and ribbon are from Papertrey Ink. I tied the ribbon through a "keyhole" embellishment by Melissa Frances. And, of course, I did a lot of stitching with my Janome Sew Mini.

Wow...what a BEAUTIFUL card Lisa!! Love this stamp set and the PTI c.s. and ribbon and your stitching, it's all beautiful! You're so caring and thoughtful. I'm sure the recipient will soo appreciate this. Hugsx

What a nice entry today. I always feel comforted knowing that my friend Lisa's praying for me! I'm sure that your friend was thankful and appreciative of the card that you so lovingly created for her! Great job, my friend!
